THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET
Adapted by Award-Winning Playwright Amy Ludwig
Based on the Critically-Acclaimed Novel by Sandra Cisneros
Directed by Alexandra Meda
September 29 – October 28, 2017
THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET centers around the life of young Latina Esperanza Cordero, as she undergoes her personal journey into adulthood. As she matures, Esperanza encounters the harsh realities of puberty as well the hardships witnessed in her family and her Mango Street neighborhood. Despite all she witnesses and endures, Esperanza seeks hope and persists toward a better future.
Ludwig’s adaption of THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET received national critical acclaim. The Chicago Tribune said, “Some plays open up their world so completely they cast a thick spell. That’s the triumphant case with director Amy Ludwig’s joyous and generous adaptation of The House on Mango Street.” And, “Amy Ludwig's respectful stage adaptation honors Cisneros' eloquent writing,” said the Los Angeles Times.
The Company features Elizabeth Nungaray as Esperanza, Estella Garcia as Older Esperanza, Alex Alpharoah as Ensemble, Franceli Chapman as Ensemble, Christine Mantilla as Ensemble, Graciela Lizet Rodriguez as Ensemble, and Miebaka Yohannes as Ensemble. Joining Alexandra Meda’s creative team are choreographer Ysaÿe McKeever, projection and environment designer Corwin Evans, costume designer Beryl Brachman, lighting designer Azra King-Abadi, and sound designer Jesse Mandapat.
